I still don't understand.  This is what I get:

Bad log level 3 in "3".
Freeciv must be compiled with the DEBUG flag to use LOG_DEBUG

(This was compiled without DEBUG.)
Seems fine to me.  Again, what results did you get, and what
results did you expect?

Well, it would appear that the minimum height is based on
the sum of the heights of the minimap, the status display
(population, rates, turn done etc), the current tile/unit 
display, and the output window/chatline.  And/or a fairly 
reasonable minimum height for the main map if some of the 
other parts are detached.  Again, the best solution to me 
seems to be that you detach some of the components -- and
the ability to do so is a very nice feature!
